Cher ami,

You are now our president. We turn Association and we will not let it escape soon.

Maeder has agreed terms very helpful, Seif¹ a laconically. The official report of voting results will be sent by Rank, probably tomorrow.

I now propose to prepare a Korrespondenzblatt ⁽²⁾ which can be placed in the number 4 de la magazine. (The 3 is almost completed.) I ask you, in the preamble of your proclamation, not omit to say that the previous Central ceased operations since Munich and did not even provide a single report for Congress.

I continue not to be good and want to work without; I expect the events of the Jahrbuch, who do not come, despite all reminders. I will say a lot, I atténuerai also some.

I still have no idea what we will do this summer.

Heller has languished on the poor state of our subscriptions to two magazines. The printers' strike has certainly done much harm; but it must be good.

I hope your little ones are now fully rested, and you and your wife are as befits your youth and good agreement. I had 58 ans here. Sincerely.

Your Freud.

Dear Professor,

The past week has been for me as a state of war. I swam round moving-the 1^he to 2^and floor (address remains unchanged : Elisabethring 54); together, I renewed my installation. I had to carry out all these changes - which are also not yet fully completed – without interfering with the analytical work, that I have succeeded in large- pain. Books are still Collage - yet, it is just now that I had to write the report for the Jahrbuch; I did memory and I had to search for references afterwards. Hitschmann but seems satisfied with the work.

Jung's resignation touched me very pleasantly. You do not ask me-dez, I believe, assent "official" to your proposals, with which I completely agree.

Dr.. Jaszi (Lecturer at the Faculty of Law and Head of the Radical Youth [1]) has always been that I consent to draft a detailed survey of psychoanalysis. We agreed to two conferences, this fall, the Company Sociopolitical ; I talk about the current state of psychoanalysis, Rank Sachs et (and allemand), applications of psychoanalysis to the mental sciences². [^A That said, I made the addition without the innkeeper and I don't know if R.[ank] and S.[achs] are willing to come to Budapest.] Jaszy wants to invite a number of people (including opponents) to participate in the discussion and tasked me to answer them. I think that the three of us, it is easy to knock out opponents (that, definitely, are not even aware of the basics of ψα).

I look forward to your information on the response of "directors".

Greetings from

Cher Ami,

A Brioni, I had noticed something like a home inhibition, and I connected it to the presence of Rank, but I did not go look further, because I was suffering from withdrawal of libido hypochondriac. From, expressed a grand home with tracheo-laryngitis net loss of general signs prodromal. I have not stopped working – by greed and sense of duty - but I missed it last Wednesday and, today, I am far from feeling good, either locally or in general but, first of all, I can not think.

The surprising resignation of Jung ⁽¹⁾ we really eased the task. There seems to be a part of the force that… etc. ⁽²⁾. What happens in it, it projects, can not guess, we may as well ignore it. Maybe he succumbed to the burst of the Zeitschrift^* and bomb Jahrbuch too late. Immediately, I felt like a "steering committee" and I brought an action in which you and other friends must be, or are already, informed by a circular Rank ⁽³⁾.

The conquest of fire, I just have nothing. The cultural history is silent. But I'm very curious to see what you two come out of serious.

Materials for the Jahrbuch must, as stated Hitschmann, limited! Rank and Sachs withdrew their contribution ⁽⁴⁾ therefore. You'll want to put aside your well exposed for another time, ferment or leaven as a new job.

With cordial greetings to you and to Mrs. G.,

Your faithful Freud

(3) The 30 April, Freud wrote identical letters to the presidents of the six European (Berlin, Budapest, London, Munich, Vienne et Zurich), asking them "to appoint, among the six presidents of the local groups that come into play, the person to whom you want to entrust the management of the association until the election of a President ; you are not required to exclude your own person… Myself, I am inclined to elect Dr.. Abraham, as provisional president of the association, since it is he who is best placed to carry out, from his place of residence, preliminary steps for the conference to be held in Dresden " (unpublished letter). The proposal was accepted Freud.

Cher ami,

You certainly have been as surprised as me to see with what solicitude Jung rule our business. Our reservation was eventually bear fruit ; in one way or another, we will be rid of him, perhaps even a whole Swiss.

I immediately brought into action the convening of the Conference of Presidents and I asked to write a circular Rank which should enable a decision by letter and thus save themselves a trip. The process is accomplished in two stages : First among friends, and only if they are in agreement, formally to all presidents (c.à.d. two more people). I ask you to support the proposal that you assign to the Congress leadership.

I enjoyed Brioni (2), but when there, I struggled against an indisposition which I had not known and is reported here as a tracheo-laryngitis serious. At this very moment, I am not well at all and intellectually, particularly, I'm completely inactive. Perhaps our members get weighed down by the intoxication of spring.

Hitschmann find the Jahrbuch is already more than fulfilled, so that Rank and Sachs withdrew their contribution. One can very well accept Sadger and set aside.

Last week, I spoke with two members of the U.S. Ward's Island (the group most seriously) ; they assured me Jung's influence at home is not at all important. He seems to have strong support in the person of Jellife.

With cordial greetings to you and your dear wife, and my best wishes for the new era ajungienne,

Your Freud.

Dear Professor Freud,

What a day full of surprises ! First your letter, Jung then announced his abdication ⁽¹⁾, obviously because he understood that his position was no longer tenable. So, my prediction was confirmed : "Give enough rope to a dog, it will eventually hang ", and our policies fabienne is justified ⁽³⁾ ! I briefly acknowledged receipt of his letter, and now await your instructions. Will you still postpone our meeting until July, or will it be necessary to appoint a successor to earlier administrative purposes ? I would suggest everyone to find Berlin, because you can go overnight, and Sunday, whatever. Among Obmänner, the only opponent outside Zurich Seif, and less likely to see land in Berlin and Munich. The passage, Jung why he wrote our Verein, au lieu de Association ?

Thank you for the new Loe. I guess she has not projects. I was shocked to learn the attitude of the Jones Family, and I wonder who you're talking. You will definitely sign me on the spot if, at one time or another, I can be of any aid, in this respect or another. Pending, better that I do not refer to it, because it might offend or Herbert my intrusion. Here more than two months that I have not written, but I guess it is because of his indecision.

You're absolutely right about Morton Prince. This is a fun and charming companion, but it is a perfect fool. Long ago I gave up all hope of making him understand a word in psychology, but I find it useful in many ways.

I know a little Garvin. This is a very balanced, well disposed toward us, but focuses on organic psychiatry.

Everything is going well here, and we expect a visit from Sachs.

I see you've already started counting the weeks before the holiday you are. It is a tiring period, and I hope with all my heart that you will soon perked, for example new Küsnacht⁽³⁾.

Very affectionately yours

Jones.

Honored Mr. President!

I am persuaded by the recent events that my designs are so steep in opposition with the designs of the majority of the members of our Association, I can not consider myself as a personality fit for the presidency. I also commend my resignation to the Conference of Presidents, with gratitude for the confidence I have enjoyed so far².

With theExpression of my respect
